A combined score of 29-0 to the away sides in the CONCACAF qualifiers! Not a massive surprise given it was all the bottom seeds. Plus the US Virgin Islands were the only ones actually playing at home - the others were all at neutral venues.

Italy had to work hard for victory against Bulgaria but took the lead with a penalty just before half-time before adding a second late on. Switzerland's game against Lithuania kicked off late because of an issue with the size of the goals in St. Gallen, but when it eventually got underway, Liverpool's Xherdan Shaqiri scored the only goal with just a minute played.

France pick up their first win thanks to two first half goals against Kazakhstan. Ousmane Dembele put the world champions ahead before they doubled the lead through an own goal just before half-time. Kylian Mbappe missed a second half penalty. Ukraine and Finland both drew for the second time in the group after a dramatic finish in Lviv. Ukraine went ahead on 80 minutes but then conceded a penalty with two minutes remaining, which was converted by Teemu Pukki.

Germany made it two wins out of two with a narrow victory over Romania. Serge Gnabry scored the game's only goal with Romania missing a great chance to equalise right at the death. Iceland have a mountain to climb if they are to reach their second World Cup. They suffered a second defeat against Armenia, who have maximum points from their first two games. North Macedonia put five past Liechtenstein to pick up their first points after their narrow defeat to Romania last week.

Spain were given a huge scare by Georgia, trailing at half-time and needing a stoppage time winner to pick up their first victory of the campaign. It's 28 years since Spain lost a World Cup qualifier, their last defeat coming against Denmark in 1993. Sweden enjoyed a relatively straightforward win over Kosovo. Sebastian Larsson scored a penalty in his 127th international appearance.

Probably the greatest result in Montserrat's football history as they pick up a well-deserved draw against the highest-ranked team participating in this round, El Salvador. Montserrat fell behind early on but didn't panic, going on to enjoy and equal share of possession and pressing for the equaliser for most of the second half. It finally came in the 89th minute when Lyle Taylor forced the ball home from close range to claim a famous point for his side. It also ensures they will still be in contention to progress when they resume their campaign in June, and having played the two strongest teams in the group, they can't be ruled out. Montserrat have come a very long way from where they were in 2002, bottom of the world rankings, playing in The Other Final against Bhutan (and losing 4-0) on the same day as the World Cup final. Their squad is currently made up mostly of players who play for English non-league clubs (in addition to a few pros) with Welling United, Maidenhead United and Peterborough Sports among the clubs represented, and they are managed by former Scotland international Willie Donachie.

All three goals came in the first half as Curacao made it two wins out of two and return to the top of the group. Cuba's defeat means they can no longer qualify for the next round and are the second former finalists, after Indonesia, to be eliminated from this World Cup. The match was played at the same venue in Guatemala City where Cuba lost to Guatemala in their opening game.

A heart-breaking defeat for Dominica, who looked to have secured an excellent draw with the 2018 finalists, thanks to Audel Laville's long range strike with eight minutes remaining. But just three minutes later, Panama found a winner that puts them level on points with the Dominican Republic and eliminates Dominica.

A result which throws Group F wide open as Puerto Rico claim a point against Trinidad & Tobago. It means St. Kitts & Nevis sit two points clear at the top with a 100% record and keeps Puerto Rico's own hopes alive, though they must win their final two games to stand any chance of progressing.

In the match delayed from yesterday, Canada achieved their biggest-ever victory, beating the Cayman Islands 11-0. With the possibility of the group being decided on goal difference, Canada went all-out to try and score as many as possible to give themselves the best chance of going into the final game against Suriname only needing a draw. Seven different players scored, with Lucas Cavallini scoring an eight-minute hat-trick in the second half and St. Johnstone's David Wotherspoon, a former Scotland U21 international, also getting on the scoresheet. As well as being Canada's record win, it is also the Caymans' record defeat and they are now eliminated.
